Nursing Pins

Nursing Pins

A nursing pin or badge is a time-honored symbol of the skill and commitment demonstrated by a graduating nurse; it represents pride in the professional training received and is worn throughout a career. The Maltese Cross, a traditional symbol of courage, has been identified as the inspiration of modern-day nursing pins. Graduates of any professional medical training institution have earned the right to wear a symbol of their accomplishment – and wear it proudly! They have chosen to dedicate their lives to the service of others.
